used for the adjustment value. See Fig. 1.

2. No handwritten marking. If there is no handwritten marking on
the end surface of the drive pinion, the adjustment value is
zero (0).
NOTE: 1. There are some cases of numbers stamped on the end surface
of the drive pinion, however, these numbers do not indicate
the adjustment value.
2. It is essential to check tooth contact after assembling the
differential even though the pinion height adjustment has
been made. Please refer to the Service Information for the
proper tooth contact.
